As pet parents, we all want our furry companions to live long, healthy, and happy lives. One of the simplest ways to support their well-being is by choosing foods rich in natural “superfoods.” These ingredients pack a powerful nutritional punch, offering vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that boost your pet’s overall health.
At Derby Paws in Louisville, we handpick the foods and treats we stock to ensure they meet the highest quality standards. Here are five superfoods you’ll find in many of our trusted products—and why they’re so good for your pets.
1. 🫐 Blueberries
Blueberries aren’t just great for humans—they’re also a fantastic treat for pets! Loaded with antioxidants, vitamins C and K, and fiber, they help fight free radicals, support heart health, and improve brain function. Many premium pet foods and treats we carry include blueberries for that extra immune-boosting power.
2. 🎃 Pumpkin
Pumpkin is a gentle, natural source of fiber that promotes healthy digestion and helps regulate bowel movements. It’s also rich in beta-carotene, which supports eye health. Whether it’s pure pumpkin toppers, treats, or food blends, Derby Paws always has options your pet’s tummy will love.
3. 🐟 Salmon
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for shiny coats, healthy skin, and strong joints. Salmon provides a high-quality source of protein while also reducing inflammation and supporting brain function. We stock salmon-based kibbles, freeze-dried toppers, and treats perfect for dogs and cats alike.
4. 🍠 Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes are a great grain alternative, packed with fiber, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants. They provide slow-burning energy while being gentle on sensitive stomachs. Plus, pets love their natural sweetness—making them a favorite ingredient in many of our treats.
5. 🌱 Spinach
Spinach is rich in iron, magnesium, and phytonutrients that help strengthen muscles, boost immunity, and reduce inflammation. When included in balanced portions, it’s a nutrient-dense green that adds an extra health kick to your pet’s diet.
Final Thoughts
Incorporating superfoods into your pet’s daily meals can make a big difference in their health, energy, and longevity. At Derby Paws, we carefully select foods and treats with these natural boosters so you can feel confident about what you’re feeding your best friend.
